Check out the full trading performance here:

http://artoftrading.net/performance

43 winning weeks with only 15 down weeks!!



Much more than simple trading alerts: I TEACH YOU!



"I am just beginning with TraderStewie, but here are a few things I am learning:

  • Charts are important, but how important depends upon ten type of market and market behaviour of any given day.

  • How to handle gaps in the charts; when to expect a bounce.

  • When it's safe or not safe to hold a stock overnight or longer.

  • Chat room has other experienced traders with different styles and they post entries, stops, losses, gains.

  • Avoiding pitfalls, i.e. when not to hold a stock after earnings.

  • Shorting comfortably and when appropriate.

  • Learning to trade choppy, volatile and bear markets.

There are many, many other egs., but you get the idea -- Stewie's trades, teaching and chat room help you to navigate the toughest markets.

I made $892.00 on an intraday reversal day when the DOW plummeted 300 points.

Anything Is Possible: Have An Open Mind











Hi guys,

Running numerous scans tonight. I am seeing more and more bullish setups. In my humblest of opinions and i know this is a bold call, a very bold call, I am just asking you guys as traders to have an open mind and do not count out a big bounce from here. I know it sounds ridiculous and i can hear many of you laughing right now. But come on guys, this is the stock market and we ALL know that ANYTHING is possible. You cannot rule out possibilities. The minute you rule out scenarios or possibilities, then you are cornering yourself into a category and set yourself up for emotional trading. Having an open mind is the KEY to survival in this game. How many times did you tell yourself, "this is not possible" only to come back a few hours/days later to realize that it was POSSIBLE. Have an open mind. In the the most bearish of market, rallies can and do often retest highs, slightly exceed or slightly fall short of retesting the ultimate highs.

All i ask is is this: HAVE AN OPEN MIND. that's all.

At Crossroads












I spend the last few hours plowing thru my charts and i am left scratching my head as i am sure many others as well!! My conclusion is this: If you are in cash, then you are 100% doing the right thing! This indexes could be at cross roads here. The individual chart patterns in many stocks are very bearish and showing poor form even for a decent bounce and makes me think that we need to short on strength however, some indexes MIGHT be hinting that we might be in a bottoming pattern right now(expect lots of big ups and big downs with severe fake outs). Could take a few days to actually play out and there will be lots of severe whipsaw around this current range. There is only one thing that will kill the bullish case: It's the 200day moving average. Most indexes are trading below their 200 day moving averages. The longer the indexes stay below these 200 MAs, the less compelling the bullish case will be and traders will end up selling into any strength. This needs to be watched and the indexes react as we approach these levels.

Having said, I HIGHLY recommend 100% CASH here as bulls and bears battle it out. This market is more geared for aggressive traders and even aggressive traders should use small positions to navigate thru this.

When i see buying pressure, it kind of soft and on lower volume and when selling kicks, it hits the tape fast and hard and on much stronger volume. If this kind of action continues then it will be very hard to see how the bulls can come out winning.

Conclusion: Right now, the key to be nimble, very nimble. Expect anything really. Have an open mind and be ready to switch your mind in order to adapt to current conditions. It's a jungle out there.

Thanks Stewie. 2 of last days made money. You're calls are solid but to me, you're coaching is the highlight of the service. You are not only giving us the fish, you are teaching us to catch them. That is why I have stuck beyond the trial period.

Awesome Review From One Of Art Of Trading's First Members!!

A long overdue praise to one of the good guys

...Short and sweet; Stewie is a great trader, teacher and stock picker. One of the best. And a good guy to boot. Any serious trader, be it options or equities will gain from his expertise of the market, education navigating through it, and trading alerts to profit from it. This site is a true gem. Period
I have been trading, professionally for over ten years. I’ve had huge years, devastating draw-downs and that madness in between. All of which have led me to where I am now: A trader with many tools in my arsenal. Few sharper than The Art of Trading.
I have been with Stewie since this site's inception, and I would not trade without it. Is it the holy-grail of my trading? No, but there really isn't one, and that's kind of the point of this. It's about putting yourself in a position to succeed and this site does just that. No one is going to push that buy button for you, but what you hope is that other, thoughtful traders agree with your analysis, and that you in turn agree with theirs.
I know a good trader when I see one, and this guys the real deal. He has been available 24/7 for any questions I've ever had, has been totally open minded as to current macro/micro market direction and has offered complete transparency with his calls and current idea watch list. Stewie has a passion for what he does. It shows, and I am truly thankful for all the money he's made me.... Short and sweet
We all know trading is one of the most difficult endeavors one can try. There is no easy money in this game. No free lunch, no magic bullet. The "unfair advantage" everyone is looking for comes from simply working harder than the guy in the office next door. Following strict money management principles, letting your winners run, and having the balls to believe in your ideas. I can honestly say that The Art of Trading helps fosters all of these principles both from it's founder and from the community that is it. Do yourself a favor and give it a month.


Hope this shed some light on the service, please feel free to look me up in the chat room if you have any other questions. -Swoon

One caveat: Please no douche bags.

Market Thoughts And Setups






Attached are some solid looking charts that look ready to break lower any day now. Today was the first day, i actually ran scans for short setups and my conclusions are simple: BEARS IN FULL CONTROL! At this point, any bounce we see in equities will only wet the bears appetite.

This market is going lower in my humble opinion and i am starting to get very confident of this. At this point any bounce we see even the slightest bounce should be used to re-load short positions. Pressure is slowly building and this market is setting up another leg lower in the days/weeks to come. At this point, i would happily welcome a bounce here! Only problem is will we get it?


Truly exiting times for the true traders!

VIX Analysis


The VIX today retested it's recent highs and then reversed aggressively lower signaling to me that a possible bounce in equities might be in order. Overall expect a very wide and loose range bound market with lots of intra day volatility which should be good for the active nimble traders. It remains to be seen if the bounce i am expecting turns into bear flag patterns or something more meaningful for the bulls. My gut instincts tell me that this bounce once played out will likely bring in more selling but ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE so be ready!

Awesome Testimonial From An Art Of Trading Member I Deeply Respect!!

The place to go to learn the right way to trade

The Art of Trading is unlike any service or chat room I have subscribed to and I can say I have participated in them all over many many years. First off, Traderstewie is one of the most honest, straight shooter and caring person I have met in the trading universe. There is no ego, no hidden agenda not pumping of unsubstatiated gains. Everything is transparent and he is there to help you be successful.

The primary focus of The Art of Trading is education while helping you make money. The site has quite a bit of information and educational resources to help you become a better trader. Stewie supports every trade offered with a chart and a reason why he took it. Then he teaches you (and holds your hand) how to manage the trade and your stops once you are in the trade.

Even outside of managing the trades, he continually provides ongoing discussion and emails covering topics from market direction to trading psychology. He has a chat room with a number of good traders that provide a stream of ideas all day long.

It doesn't get much better than this...Have fun, learn and make money!

I highly recommend The Art Of Trading for anyone looking to build their skills, make money and become a true professional trader.

Focus On The Good Trading, Not the $$$$

We all know why we are trading: We are trading to make money obviously but MONEY is not what good traders focus on. Think about what i am trying to say for a second.

Yes, experienced traders make money(some make LOTS of money) but what a good trader needs to do is focus on TRADING WELL first and foremost. If you focus on trading well and look to be truly improving on your skills, then the money will come sooner or later.

I see many traders focusing on what will i make if take this trade? Will i make $500? Will i make $10,000? Many automatically think how much money they will make without really asking themselves: How much will i lose if this trade busts?? How much am i willing to lose? What's the maximum loss i can handle and still be able to take my next trade without being overly emotional about the last trade?

Good traders do not care or think about how much they stand to make on each trade. They know once you are in a trade, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN and it's about managing what the market is willing to give for the amount of risk you were willing to take.

Never have plans for the trades: Never say things like if the trade bounces another $1, that will make up for my loss from my precious trade and i will be breakeven. Don't be that trader who is always trying to breakeven. You will breakeven and then some once you start trading well. In trading you will have losing trades and you will have winning trades, i don't care who you are, you will go thru losses and gains. So having a breakeven mentality will only hurt you. Focus on putting on GOOD TRADES first! The other stuff will take care of itself.

Trading well requires strong discipline, strong execution skills, strong conviction in a direction of a trade, strong skills to spot trading opportunities before they become obvious, strong confidence in yourself, your system and your ability to know when a trade is not working and taking proper action, strong skills in taking profits without allowing greed to ruin the trade. These are the mechanics of trading well: Focus on these rather the $$$. If you focus on trading well, the $$$$ will follow.

I know it's not always easy to separate the money from the trades but YOU MUST DO IT, period!

hope this helps.
